The headline credits the car for the agression. The car didn’t do it, the driver did.
What a garbage rag. They seriously are putting this on bikers for not “moving to the right.” I’m fucking livid with this crap and that editor should be fired. Garbage people running that news organization.
It’s not just this rag. It’s all of capitalist media.
Which begs the question if you can swerve non-aggressively through a crowd of cyclists.

Did you watch the video? Or see the screenshot in the article? The street is filled with bicycles. They weren’t blocking the street, they were using it.
God forbid that anyone outside a car use and enjoy a publically owned roads. Cities should be exclusively for cars, not people, just like Jesus intended. /s

Imagine how pissed that driver would be if they were actually following what the driver probably thinks they should be doing: riding single file next to the kerb.
The long queue of bikes would prevent the driver turning onto the road for so long.
Or imagine if you replace every bike with a car and then have bumper to bumper traffic a mile long. When cars block roads no one gives it two thoughts. It is so frustrating how ignorant carbrains are
Yeah, that’s the funny thing about carbrains crying that “bikers should follow the law!!!” They would be crying even harder if bikers actually drove like cars.
I mean… I bike on the sidewalk all the time because (1) it’s much safer for my life, (2) nobody is ever on the sidewalk (b/c car dependency), and (3) it’s more convenient for drivers. Do these dummies really want me driving in the street taking up the whole lane? Stopping before them at stop signs? Lol no they don’t want that.
Following the law is dangerous for cyclists, for sure. If I come to a complete stop at a stop sign I won’t be able to get up to speed instantly, and the motorist might decide to swerve around me and put us both in danger. Or they might road rage and kill me.
